BARNSTABLE – A Worcester man was arraigned Thursday in Barnstable District Court on multiple charges after he alleg­edly threatened to cut a wom­an's face after she took a picture of herself with her phone during dinner.

David Foley, 35, was charged with assault with a knife, assault and battery and threatening to commit murder stemming from an alleged argument with the woman Wednesday night at the British Beer Company in Sand­wich.

Foley and the woman were having dinner when she took a photo of herself with her phone, to which Foley allegedly said,“I have never met someone who is so into themselves,”according to the police report.

The conversation escalated and Foley grabbed the woman's steak knife off her plate and threatened to cut her face with it, according to the report. The woman told police Foley also threatened to kill her.

Before police arrived, Foley left the restaurant, pushing the woman on his way out, accord­ing to the report. Police found Foley at the Sandwich Motor Lodge, where he had been stay­ing, and he was arrested.

Foley was taken to the Sand­wich Police Department, where he slammed his head against the wall before being placed in his cell, according to the report.

Police later learned there was a warrant out for Foley's arrest in Boston on charges of felony assault, lewdness, threats, dis­turbing the peace and resisting arrest, according to the report.
